An Athens law firm has funded a University of Georgia School of Law scholarship in the name of the advocacy professor who a firm partner said was the voice inside his head when he became a trial lawyer.
Epps, Holloway, DeLoach & Hoipkemier has created the Kellie R. Casey Scholarship Fund, the law school announced Monday. The law school advancement office is accepting additional contributions to the fund. Starting this fall, a scholarship will be awarded to a law student with a demonstrated interest or achievement in advocacy.
